Why does it have to be nation vs nation? Why can't it be H.B. Earth?

I suppose this is a thread for speculation, but why can't the nations of our world become allies and all join forces to engage in galactic affairs? (Home Base Earth)

If the money that is spent on national defense for all nations was instead used to educate masses into a super society of highly intelligent people, surely we would gain momentum toward greater affairs other than just war.

Speculate as you may.

Yes, that would be great. But, try telling that to warmongers.

They could always go to war with aliens.
I think humans should learn to be one race, the Human Race.

Your own governments don't how your interests at heart, so since it's a lose/lose scenario, might as well see how it goes.

I believe world peace is actually inevitable, as scientific study of space progresses, nations will come together for a combined goal.

You may look to the past and claim that it will never happen because it has never happened before. I'd say, show me the last civilization with computers.

Because the dominant majority of the world still identifies themselves through nationalism...blame Napoleon and the American Revolution.

The NWO is the "Old World Order" trying to come back.

We all know better,but we can't remember.

That's why the MSM calls it "Conspiracy Theory".

History repeats itself when the masses remain ignorant.

The majority of us are,and always have been.

What you speak of is "Socialism",which in it's unadulterated form is a good thing.

But you have been taught otherwise by " The Old World Orderites".

One global nation would be equivalent to opening up your home to the entire block, creating hallways between the homes, and sharing your bank account and significant others. Each neighbor already has vastly different backgrounds and histories. Each neighbor is molded by their environment and experiences. Each neighbor is competing for resources with YOU. Your neighbors compete with you for your job, for your money, in the dating world and in maintaining your current relationship. Your neighbors' best interests are not your best interests. But why not make all neighbors one family?

One global nation would be the same as all companies giving up their firewalls and making their internal networks the open Internet. Competing companies would have access to proprietary information of the competition, and be able to disable the operations of their competitors. But why not make all companies one company?

One global nation would be the same as abolishing individual states. Your state would be subject to the resource demands of the next region for lumber, water, tax revenue, jobs, companies, and hugely expensive social support programs. California could quickly bankrupt neighboring states by sharing it's budget, or by shifting resource draining portions of the population to neighboring states. And impose it's restrictive laws on business or people who used to be outside it's borders, or tried to move away from it's constricting laws.

There's the constitution. One nation believes in alienable rights granted by God, which cannot be infringed by man. Say another nation is based on atheism, there's no God so therefore the only rights that exist are permitted by government, and we're simply animals anyway so human life has little difference in value from a cow. Another nation is controlled by an extremist religion where no skin can be exposed under punishment of death by stoning. Say another nation has low food resources, and it's open season on your pets. Those are conflicts in principles. But why not make all nations one global nation?

The idea fails at the idea stage.
